Gates of Hell is pretty good now that I know how the map editor works (It makes me want to die inside). - New Janny in Town likes this.

@Drozdovsky isn't Gates of Hell a game about WW2? -

@MK2boogaloo That it is, but pretty much the entire Assault Squad 2 modding community are either main developers for it or they imported/started their own mods for the game. That shot in particular is from a submod for a late-60's Cold War-era mod that pushes it to the 1980's. Good stuff, absolute chaos on higher unit count settings. New Janny in Town likes this. -

@MK2boogaloo Point being that most of the old conversion mods for Assault Squad 2 are here in some capacity or another. RobZ's in by default because he's actually a dev for the game proper, the expanded WWII mod Valour's shifted development entirely to Gates of Hell, and stuff like the Star Wars mod's getting transferred over, too.

@Drozdovsky oh yeah I remember playing AS2, I haven't tried RobZ since my PC was quite shit at the time but I saw the glory days of that mod.
Also didn't they develop a Cold War Men of War? I heard it was a flop though. -

@MK2boogaloo Yeah, that was an AS2 expansion, everyone hated it. The big news is that the main Ukie developers apparently released Men of War 2 recently, and it is absolutely terrible. I played the open beta and apparently nothing changed. You can hardly call it a MoW game, maybe a rehash of their old Arena plan at best. Luckily the GoH team wasn't affected.
